Abstract

An air control system which is connected to the conventional air supply on a truck is continuously connected to the truck tires and provides equal pressure to all of the tires through a regulator. The air connection between the regulator and each tire is through a rotatable joint in the truck axles for allowing rotation of the wheels while connected to the air control system.
